Telecoms signaling vendor, Dialogic, Tuesday unveiled the availability of Dialogic PowerApp LB, a software-based load balancer for Real-Time Communications. Designed for COTS servers or network function virtualization deployments, the software-based PowerApp LB can be deployed in cloud or on-premise, supporting geographic diversity and resilience.
According to Dialogic, the software load balancer is designed to address the unique scaling and resilience requirements of real-time communications applications in carrier and enterprise applications. With PowerApp LB, application developers, service providers and enterprises are able to dynamically scale, distribute and manage traffic associated with a diverse set of real-time and non-real-time applications across disparate applications and data centers, added Dialogic.

Managing latency-sensitive voice and video network traffic within large-scale deployments of real-time communications applications is a challenge that is not always effectively addressed by existing web-centric Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs).
